The Olympics are a great part of the world’s history because the modern Olympics have changed for the better and it is one of the most popular events in the world and because people from all over the world enjoy ice hockey and it is one of the world’s greatest pastimes. To begin, the modern Olympics have changed a lot in the one hundred and fifteen years. The first modern Olympics were in 1896 and took place in Athens, Greece. The modern Olympics were reinstated because Charles Louise Fredy de Coubertin, a French aristocrat and educational professional, wanted to promote intelligence and understanding through sports and competition (indiaserver.com). The first modern Olympics held 43 events and only men competed from 13 different countries. The first place winner was the only one that got a medal which was silver. Winter sports were not included (SMH.com). The modern Olympics have drastically changed throughout the past several years. Second, ice hockey is many people’s favorite winter sport in the Olympics. It is liked by many because it is fun to watch and play with one’s friends. The best player on the US national team is probably Zach Parise because he has the most experience and he is a great goal scorer. His team is one of the best teams competing (Chacha.com). Canada is predicted to win the gold medal but the USA is predicted to get the silver or bronze medal (offwing.com). The USA practices ice hockey in Lake Placid, NY (quinnipiacbobcats.com). Ice hockey is a very exciting sport and the Olympics would not be the same without it. In conclusion, the Olympics are a very entertaining event because the modern Olympics have made the event so much more interesting and because ice hockey is one of the most intense and entertaining games in the Olympics. Because of the Olympics, great athletes have been made into champions.
